Prepare for the Biggest Battle in Game of Thrones History
The creators behind HBO's Game of Thrones have already promised their best season yet, they're now guaranteeing that season 6 will give us the show's biggest battle scene ever.
"It's definitely the biggest [action sequence yet], writer-producer Bryan Cogman told EW. "We've always wanted to get to a place - story-wise and budget-wise and time-wise and resource-wise - where we would be able to do a proper battle, with one army on one side, one army on another side."
Famous battles from the show include season 2's the Battle of the Blackwater, season 4's Battle of Castle Black, and the White Walker invasion of Hardhome in season 5. So apparently, this will top them all, which sounds pretty fantastic.
"We wondered, 'Why don't you see more fully fleshed-out battles in movies and TV?'" co-showrunner Dan Weiss said. "Then you get into the nitty-gritty of what it takes to actually shoot these things in a way that isn't just helter-skelter chaos but actually gives you a sense of battle geography and the ebb and flow, and you realize why."
Miguel Sapochnik will direct the episode, who helmed last year's "Hardhome," the battle with the White Walkers that was meat with critical and fan acclaim.
